Their goal was to elevate awareness of the club, drive program registrations, expand partnerships, and establish themselves as the premier destination for both kids and older adults.

RESULTS

Max enrollment status. New programs added. A happy community.

We successfully communicated the value of the Sarah Heinz House to audiences such as parents, key stakeholders, and corporate sponsors.
